    You can even power it off one if the USB ports on your Flex. Good find!

    Never thought of that. These relay boards are cheap and really easy to work with.

    And the most common, cheapest, and most available are all 5V, so the idea of USB power from the Flex is super - no 12-to-5v converter needed! Even cheaper.

    I just used a small 5 volt regulator. This thing draws just a few milliamps.
